TheLittleMermaid is expected to sink 'Fast X' at the domestic box office this weekend.
In one of the best results ever for a Memorial Day weekend release, Disney’s live-action The Little Mermaid grossed $10.3 million in Thursday previews. This is substantially ahead of the $7 million that another recent Disney live-action remake, Aladdin, grossed in 2019. The Little Mermaid also grossed around $850,000 from special Wednesday screenings, but this figure is included in the $10.3 million Thursday haul. This is the seventh-biggest preview gross for a film rated P or PG.
With this, The Little Mermaid is pacing to deliver a $120 million haul across the extended four-day weekend, putting it ahead of Aladdin, which opened to $116.8 million. That film, directed by Guy Ritchie, showed phenomenal legs over the summer, and ultimately grossed over $350 million domestically and more than $1 billion worldwide.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Directed by Rob Marshall , The Little Mermaid has received mostly positive reviews from critics, with star Halle Bailey’s performance being singled out, while deviations from the original were criticized. It currently sits at a “fresh” 67% score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Collider’s own Ross Bonaime called it “one of the rare live-action remakes that manages to capture that Disney magic” in his review.
Disney's Live-Action Remakes Have Been a Mixed Bag Disney’s streak of live-action remakes has had its ups and downs. For every The Jungle Book and Cinderella, there’s an Alice in Wonderland and Pinocchio. And then, there are the oddities, two of which — Pete’s Dragon and the recent Peter Pan & Wendy — have been directed by David Lowery. Four Disney live-action remakes — The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Alice in Wonderland — have grossed over $1 billion worldwide.
The live-action remake also stars Melissa McCarthy as the villainous Ursula, Jonah Hauer-King, Daveed Diggs, Awkwafina, Javier Bardem, Jacob Tremblay, Noma Dumezweni and Art Malik.

Movie Review: Disenchantment under the sea in live-action ‘The Little Mermaid’It’s not Rob Marshall’s fault that Disney’s latest live-action retread doesn’t really sing. “The Little Mermaid,” a somewhat drab undertaking with sparks of bioluminescence, suffers from the same fundamental issues that plagued “The Lion King,” “Aladdin” and “Beauty and the Beast.” Halle Bailey might be a lovely presence and possesses a superb voice that is distinctly different from Jodi Benson’s, but photorealistic fins, animals and environments do not make Disney fairy tales more enchanting on their own.
